In front of the gate of the post house, hundreds of elite "Hundred Cavalry" soldiers had their bows strung, their swords unsheathed, and they were ready with murderous intent.
Xiao Yu, who had already fallen asleep, was woken up. He put on a pair of clothes and walked out in a daze. He was startled by the formation. He woke up immediately and came to Li Junxian and asked: "General Li, what happened?
"
Li Junxian held the sword in his hand and stared at the Pujin Crossing Bridge in the night like a hawk with his eyes. He said solemnly: "There is a cavalry attack. I don't know what the target is yet, but I have to deal with it with caution. I also ask Song Guogong
In the formation, let soldiers guard the left and right sides. If the situation is unfavorable, retreat all the way north, and then wait for an opportunity to cross the Yellow River and return to Guanzhong."
Xiao Yu's heart tensed, he opened his mouth, then turned around silently, walked to the formation, took a horizontal knife from the servant's hand and carried it, then got on his horse, frowning and looking at the dark night sky not far away.
The sound of a horse's hooves gradually became clearer from being imperceptible. After a few breaths, the sound rolled in like a stormy sea, filling the eardrums and shocking the soul.
The elite "Hundred Cavalry" had swords in their hands and their eyes were bright, waiting for the moment the enemy came, and they charged forward and fought bloody battles. Xiao Yu and the servants and soldiers he brought with him had earth-colored faces and fear in their hearts.
In a moment, a cavalry suddenly appeared from the Pujin Ferry Bridge in the night, just like the soldiers of the underworld suddenly leaping out of the Nine Netherworld. There were black shadows on the bridge that could accommodate eight horses running parallel, and steel knives in their hands.
Reflecting the faint starlight in the sky, the cold light shines.
The sound of hooves is like thunder.
Seeing that the cavalry had reached the limit of speed and charged like a phoenix army, Li Junxian had no luck anymore. With a "choking" sound, he drew out his horizontal sword, pointed the tip forward, and shouted in a deep voice: "Fire the arrow."
!”
"Boom!"
More than a hundred powerful crossbows fired in an instant, and the short crossbow arrows flew out of the bow in the night sky, forming a dense web of arrows and shooting toward the charging enemy cavalry.
"Puff puff"
Although the sound of arrows piercing the flesh was masked by the roaring hoofbeats, the rapid charge seemed to be hit in the face. Countless soldiers screamed and fell off their horses, and countless horses neighed and fell headlong. However, the following cavalry seemed to have disappeared and continued to push forward.
The war horse kept accelerating, ignoring the iron hoofs trampling on Pao Ze's body, and just charged blindly.
This is a truly elite team.
Li Junxian took a breath, and before firing the second round of crossbow arrows, he turned to Xiao Yu and said: "The enemy is well prepared and has sufficient troops. This will be a bloody battle. The general will send people to escort Song Guogong to evacuate north from now on.
In the end, we will annihilate this cavalry and then catch up and join them."
Xiao Yu knew that the situation was critical, so he didn't say anything nonsense. He nodded and said: "General Li, please be careful. I will take the first step."
He immediately turned the horse's head, clamped its belly, and escaped northward along the official road under the escort of two hundred elite "Hundred Riders".
Li Junxian breathed a sigh of relief. Without Xiao Yu as a dragster, he could let go and fight.
At this time, the second round of crossbow arrows was fired, and countless enemy cavalry fell on the charging road. The charging momentum was slightly curbed, and the strict formation was somewhat dispersed.
Li Junxian jumped on his horse and raised his sword, urging the horse to charge towards the enemy, shouting: "My sons, follow me to kill the enemy!"
"kill!"
Hundreds of "Hundred Cavalry" masters put away their crossbows, mobilized their horses, followed behind Li Junxian with their swords waving, and launched a countercharge towards the enemy cavalry without fear.
"boom!"
Li Junxian rode forward and slammed into the enemy formation. The two sides charged with great force. The force of the collision was extremely amazing. At the moment of the collision, the weapons in both sides' hands were pointed at each other.
Chop and go.
Li Junxian leaned down gently on the horse, and the horse collided with the opponent "bang" under his crotch. He let out a long "Herodian" sound. He was unsteady on his four hooves and fell diagonally to one side.
Li Junxian controlled the reins with one hand and steered in the direction of the horse's tilt, allowing the horse to regain its balance. With the other hand, he raised the horizontal knife with his backhand and cut an enemy soldier with a deep gash from his ribs to his chest, killing him.
The armor tore like torn paper, and blood and organs spurted out, splashing Li Junxian's face.
After a slight delay, the soldiers behind him were already following closely, and they violently collided with the enemy's cavalry. For a moment, the men were turned upside down, and blood spurted out.
The cavalry charging into battle are so fierce and brutal!
The moment of charging into the formation is a reflection of the strength of both sides. This kind of duel between strength and power is absolutely impossible to play with fancy skills. It is a complete competition of the quality of the soldiers, which depends on the usual training, the physical fitness of the soldiers, and the will to fight.
.
In all aspects, "Hundred Cavalry" has an absolute advantage.
With just one charge, the "Hundred Cavalry" overwhelmed the aggressive enemy cavalry. Countless soldiers fought bravely to gain the initiative in the battle. Then, under the leadership of Li Junxian, they dug straight into the enemy formation and broke through.
A bloody road with broken limbs and broken arms can be seen everywhere.
Li Junxian roared and knocked over an enemy soldier with one strike. He spurred his horse forward and crushed the head of a soldier who fell from his horse and rolled to the ground. Then, with a backhand strike, he cut off an enemy soldier who was fighting with his soldiers in half.
Broken, the enemy soldier's upper body rolled off the horse's back, while his lower body sat on the horse's back, blood gushing like a fountain...
Li Junxian was full of murderous intent and in excellent condition. He controlled the reins with one hand and wielded the sword with the other, charging forward like a god of war. Suddenly, something came loose in front of him, and the sound of fighting seemed far away. When he looked closely, he found that he had penetrated the enemy's formation.
With great pride in his heart, he turned his horse's head and led his soldiers to fight back again.
The noble officials throughout Chang'an were afraid of the pervasiveness of the "Baiqisi", thinking that it was just a hawk used by the emperor to control the officials, but they ignored that the "Baiqisi" were all selected from the left and right guards.
Outstanding, every soldier is an outstanding warrior.
Do you really think that "Hundred Qisi" is just a group of secret spies who pick at the cracks of doors, listen to window sills, and break doors and locks without seeing the light?
The horizontal sword in my hand has been thirsty for too long!
Li Junxian was high-spirited, and the horizontal sword in his hand was flying up and down, as if he was in a deserted place, and he was as brave as anyone else. He was a military commander himself, and he didn't like the "Baiqisi" who walked in the dark and monitored the affairs of the officials.
, the biggest wish is to one day be able to gallop on the battlefield and kill the enemy bravely.
It's just that His Majesty Li Er trusted him very much and tried his best to suppress the flying dreams in his heart, so that he had to succumb to the "Hundred Cavalry Division" and willingly become the King of Earth Eagle Dog.
The current battle was exactly what he had been looking forward to for a long time. He led his soldiers to cut through the enemy formation and kill them all over. Seeing the blood flowing from the corpses everywhere, he felt refreshed and relieved. He watched a few enemy cavalry flee in panic.
, stopped the soldiers from pursuing him, and said loudly: "Don't chase the poor invaders! Follow me north to protect Song Guogong!"
"Here!"
The morale of the soldiers under his command soared, and they responded with a bang.
In the night, the "Hundred Cavalry" soldiers galloped north along the official road, leaving corpses strewn across the Pujin Ferry Bridge and a mess.
A long time later, a group of cavalry came galloping from the west bank of Pujin Ferry and were shocked to see the extremely miserable scene at the bridgehead.
The first captain said in a trembling voice: "Didn't you say that there are only a few hundred 'Hundred Cavalry' eagle dogs? We dispatched two thousand cavalry, but they were all slaughtered... How is this possible?"
Another man dismounted and ordered the accompanying soldiers to search the battlefield. He said disapprovingly: "Obviously, the 'Hundred Cavalry' must have a large number of reinforcements hiding their whereabouts. They only rushed out suddenly during our surprise attack, which led to our defeat and heavy losses."
The captain's face was full of shock: "But we have found out clearly, where are the reinforcements?"
At this time, the soldiers briefly searched the battlefield and came back to report that the number of enemies was only in the hundreds and would never exceed a thousand.
Another man nodded and said: "Sure enough, four to five thousand elite "Hundred Cavalry Division" escorted Xiao Yu, and more than half of the soldiers were hidden in advance, killing us by surprise. Although this battle was a disastrous defeat, it was not due to our incompetence.
, but the source of the intelligence is wrong, report it to Duke Zhao immediately, ask him to carefully identify the source of the information, and severely punish him!"
The captain opened his mouth, and finally silently acquiesced, his eyes dark.
The failure of the mission was doomed, and they would face severe punishment from Duke Zhao. However, although the mistake was made, the failure caused by underestimating the enemy was completely different from the failure caused by incorrect information. The former was because they had misjudged the combat power of the "Hundred Cavalry Division"
, is a subjective error, while the latter is an accident and is an objective error.
Just think about the violent character of Duke Zhao today, and he will keep his mouth shut.
Seeing that he no longer persisted, the other man breathed a sigh of relief, got on his horse, and said: "Immediately follow the enemy's tracks, guard them tightly, and send people back to mobilize troops and horses again. I don't believe that we can't take down just Xiao Yu!"
